How to Save at Kmart


Kmart offers a store rewards program called Shop Your Way, which allows shoppers to earn points when they frequent Sears, Kmart, Lands’ End, Sears Auto Centers, Sears Home Services, and Kmart Pharmacy, says Novickis. Shoppers can redeem points online or in-store at those same places, except at Sears Home Services and Kmart Pharmacy. You can earn at least 10 points for every dollar spent in-store or online. Kmart’s program is free, so you may want to join if you shop there often. “Just don't expect much: You receive 10 points for every $1 spent, and $1 for every 1,000 points earned,” says Bowsher. “That means you earn $1 for every $100 spent -- a whopping one percent.”

A better way to save: Kmart frequently offers coupons for in-store and online shoppers, says Woroch. Make sure to sign up to Kmart’s email newsletter to receive daily/weekly sale alerts and exclusive coupon codes.
